Meet Dr. Alyssa Kurth

Dr. Alyssa Kurth was born and raised in Green Bay, WI. She attended both St. Norbert College in De Pere, WI and Lancaster University in the U.K. to obtain her Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry. She was involved in several research studies and published during her time there, graduating with Summa cum Laude honors.

A Changed Path

“Dr. Alyssa Kurth knew she wanted to be a chiropractor as soon as she met hers!”

She met her chiropractor at a pivotal moment in her life, a time when she was planning on attending medical school but quickly learned that today’s mainstream “modern medicine’ was not what she had expected. Despite “wellness'” claims, Dr. Alyssa Kurth still saw too heavy a reliance on drugs and surgery, and too little faith placed in the human body. After learning that chiropractic centers itself around the nervous system (the master control switch of the human body) and that chiropractors believe and trust in the body’s innate healing powers, she made a proud decision to attend Chiropractic school.

Dr. Alyssa Kurth thus enrolled at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, where she graduated as her class Valedictorian. While attending Palmer, Dr. Alyssa Kurth became heavily involved in learning and teaching the Gonstead technique through the Troxell Intern Program run by Dr. Josh Lawlor. She also interned under Dr. Rick Burns, a famous Gonstead chiropractor and Illinois’ Chiropractor of the year several years running.

After attending Palmer, Dr. Alyssa Kurth worked at LaBounty Family Chiropractic in Ankeny, IA. Dr. Michael LaBounty served to be an immeasurable mentor to Dr. Alyssa Kurth, as he is one of the most well-known and successful pediatric Gonstead chiropractors.

Outside the Office

Today, Dr. Alyssa feels privileged to serve the people of Wilsonville and its surrounding areas. While out of the office, Dr. Alyssa spends her time teaching, studying and researching pediatrics, nutrition and the Gonstead technique. She also enjoys reading, cooking, exercising, and spending quality time outdoors with Arrow.
